The highly anticipated sequel Wicked: Part Two – For Good from Universal Pictures just added another star to its already amazing cast. The production has officially cast Academy Award nominee Colman Domingo as the Cowardly Lion. This gives a new twist to one of the most loved characters in movie history.

Directed by Jon M. Chu, this musical fantasy is the second part of the adaptation of the hit Broadway show Wicked. It tells the story of the Wizard of Oz in a new way. Fans are excited to see how the Cowardly Lion’s origin story fits in. It will align with Elphaba and Glinda’s journeys now that Domingo has been cast.

Wicked: Part Two – For Good will pick up where Wicked: Part One left off in 2024. Ariana Grande will play Glinda and Cynthia Erivo will play Elphaba. The sequel promises an emotional ending with great performances, bright visual effects, and songs that will stay with you forever.

Marc Platt, the producer, is back with the same creative team that made the first movie a huge hit around the world. People who work on the show say Part Two will “complete the story in a spectacular and deeply moving way.” It will give fans both heart and spectacle.

The movie will come out in November 2025. It will bring the story of friendship, bravery, and fate to a grand end. With Colman Domingo joining the cast, Wicked: Part Two – For Good is going to be one of the most talked-about movies of the year.
